Director of Corporate Accounts
Corporate Pensions & Employee Benefits Field-Based (London access required)
A senior leadership role with real ownership, real influence and a clear pathway forward.
My client is a privately owned, acquisitive financial services business with a high-quality corporate portfolio at the centre of our growth strategy. With their current Head of Corporate retiring, they're appointing a Director to take stewardship of an established and profitable book - and lead its next phase.
This is a succession hire. Not a rebuild. Not a vanity title.
The Role
You will assume full responsibility for the Corporate division, overseeing 55+ employer schemes and c.4,000 members across 30+ businesses.
Your focus:
- Protect and deepen key employer relationships
- Drive organic revenue growth across employers and members
- Lead and develop an experienced support team
- Own divisional performance and standards
- Work closely with Wealth and Sales to maximise cross-division opportunity
- Contribute at senior leadership level
You will have autonomy from day one and genuine commercial accountability.
About You
You are an experienced corporate pensions and employee benefits adviser operating at senior level. You are trusted by directors and business owners and comfortable leading strategic conversations.
You will bring:
- 5+ years' experience in corporate pensions, group risk and employee benefits
- Adviser qualifications
- Strong technical knowledge across workplace pensions, group risk, auto-enrolment, PPPs/SIPPs, director schemes and SSAS
- Commercial judgement and a growth mindset
You may already be leading a portfolio but lack the progression, autonomy or influence you're capable of. This role offers all three.
Bringing clients is welcome, but not essential. Leadership, credibility and stewardship are the priority.
The Offer
- Competitive basic salary
- Car allowance
- Commission and quarterly bonus linked to corporate growth
- Employee share scheme
- Generous holiday and pension
- Clear progression into broader senior or executive responsibility
